up till now

ok, so since hitchhiking weve been in berlin. stuff happened.
slept places.
couple of couchsurfers and a room indra is renting.
one host was a russio german girl, she did performances and went out till 4pm most nights, shes hyper nice. she likes ja!. other one is a guy from california whos really tall and superb dude, big stutter and kinda awkward sometimes but super great.
talked to a guy from portland for hours about basketball, i felt really cosy after that. he suggested painting the wall on the place he worked. the next day i went in and asked after the owner, who turned out to be the bar lady we were joking with. she was like yeah have a show in here and paint stuff, but it better be good because banksys friend is painting the other one. and in my head i was like fuck you, marc pearson could be banksys friend who is he (banksy), i dont know, shut up. so im gonna paint that stuff. but i need somewhere to paint pictures that arent attatched to the wall.

so since then ive been asking people if they know any painters that have a space here, and it seems like berlin is a city full of people that look like they could make stuff but arent actually.

so yesterday we went to paint this girl who lives with the couch host im staying withs studio white. turns out its in hitlers old stables. so we walked in after getting croissants straight outta the oven at 4am, everything was dark or flickering. i had a head lamp i found in my bag. great place. anyway they werent there so we explored a bit in the attic then went back to the couch hosts place. we chilled with his housemates and it turns out theyre from brisbane and they paint and know a bunch of people i know. now im gonna go meet julia
